Bah .. friends. They all turned into a bunch of drug addled washed-up idiots. The only time they're sober is when they're at work. Screw em'. They're more like acquaintances now, now that I think about it .. I guess that makes them alright. Terrible friends, great acquaintances.

Well, given everyone's a coward who would never actually talk about their interests or goals in life in public anyway, regardless of who they are, it's a pretty hopeless situation for everybody in general. That would explain why most marriages, amongst other things such as friendships, end in travesty. At least I make a point of constantly talking about philosophy, videogames, and that sweet anime I saw last week when I'm in public.

I have many friends that watch anime because I got them into the anime!
Two of my friends like the romance type so I got them into it and some of my guy friends like action-adventure, but I still talk about my interests to them even though they might not like that genre.

It's kind of easy to find anime friends, but at the same time it's not.
I realized my best friend that I had for all my life also loved anime and we just didn't tell each other that, but then I guess we randomly started talking about it and she loves it as well. 8D..I tell everyone how much I love it, but then some people think i'm weird, and this one guy calls me an anime chick. lmao.

It vastly depends on the person. In my case I still feel very lonely without my partner, others feel more happy or even less lonely around their friends than partner. There are also those who love being alone.

Without my wife, my best friend and my nephew I am pretty much on my own, so I can sympathize with people who feel neglected in society, doesn't help when the person who lonely isn't conditioned to believe what everyone else accepts out of ignorance, then that person is even more lonely from rejection due to not accepting the ways of conditioned thinking.

I created a monster with my one friend. I showed her kdrama and kpop and she's addicted. When I go to her place with our other friend, she talks about kdrama or kpop with that friend cause they're more into it than me. But I don't feel lonely, I zone out into outerspace X3

hmmm...well I guess I've been lucky in that respect quite a bit of friends and my girlfriend are into anime but i also thing thats because i believe their isnt much to do locally in my area even though i am in southern California but yea my family never understood but also never gave me a hard time about it ether, but that never really bothered me because their was plenty about them that I never got a full grasp on .
